Adiós
Gustavo Cerati Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Suspiraban lo mismo los dos
Y hoy son parte de una lluvia lejos
No te confundas no sirve el rencor
Son espasmos después del adiós

Pones canciones tristes para sentirte mejor
Tu esencia es más visible
Del mismo dolor
Vendrá un nuevo amanecer
Uh uh uh uh

Tal vez colmaban la necesidad
Pero hay vacíos que no pueden llenar
No conocían la profundidad
Hasta que un día no dio para más

Quedabas esperando ecos que no volverán
Flotando entre rechazos
Del mismo dolor
Vendrá un nuevo amanecer
Uh uh uh uh

Separarse de la especie
Por algo superior
No es soberbia, es amor
No es soberbia, es amor

Poder decir adiós
Es crecer
Uh uh uh uh

Overall Meaning

Gustavo Cerati's song "Adiós" is a poignant reflection on the aftermath of a relationship's end. The opening lyrics suggest that the two individuals involved once shared the same sentiments and feelings, but now they are a part of a distant rain. The lines "No te confundas no sirve el rencor/Son espasmos después del adiós" indicate that there's no point in holding on to resentment or anger towards one another, as it's only natural to have spasms of emotion after separation.


As the song progresses, the singer describes the common coping mechanisms used to dull the pain of heartbreak, such as listening to sad songs to make oneself feel better. He acknowledges that pain can reveal a person's true essence and that a new dawn will come. He goes on to suggest that the relationship may have met certain needs, but there were voids which it could not fill.


The final lines of "Adiós" feature Cerati's signature play on words, highlighting the depth of his romanticism. He suggests that separating from someone who doesn't align with us is not an act of pride, but rather an act of love. Saying goodbye can be the ultimate act of maturity and growth. All in all, the song is a beautiful, emotional reflection on a particular aspect of the human experience, interpreted with brilliance by one of Latin America's greatest musicians.

Suspiraban lo mismo, los dos
Y hoy, son parte de una lluvia lejos
No te confundas, no sirve el rencor
Son espasmos después del adiós
Pones canciones tristes para sentirte mejor
Tu esencia es más visible
Del mismo dolor
Vendrá un nuevo amanecer, uh-uh-uh-uh-uh
Tal vez, colmaban la necesidad
Pero, hay vacíos que no pueden llenar
No conocían la profundidad
Hasta que un día no dio para más
Quedabas esperando ecos que no volverán
Flotando entre rechazos
Del mismo dolor
Vendrá un nuevo amanecer
Separarse de la especie por algo superior
No es soberbia, es amor
No es soberbia, es amor
Poder decir adiós
Es crecer, uh-uh-uh-uh-uh
